Ah, so many people to reply to, so this is going to be generic:
tea.. I drink fairly often, doesn't upset me whatsoever, although I drink the ones that are supposed to aid.
coffee... I drink rarely, a few times a month at best, but for a while over Christmas break I was drinking it almost every day, and did have a slight increase of noises.
Welsh girl, I wanted to tell you that I get pain in my stomach sometimes. Not as often anymore since I've changed my diet, but today in class, in the left side of my intestines I had like a heavy, nauseous, pain. It went away pretty fast, but currently my whole stomach kind of feels, off kilter so to speak. Uneasy, I guess.
I know HP has mentioned before that there is no .. system to it. I can feel nauseous and oily one day, and then not have to use the restroom the entire next day. There isn't a consistency that I can pinpoint. Also, i've noticed that for a while back, before Christmas break, I was using the bathroom and seeing completely undigested food, and maybe I just kept coming across food poisoning, but I can't dismiss it. The pains that would come before would make me fall over.
Also, I know some of you have mentioned the extreme fatigue, that is the part that worries me most.
Irishlad, I DO plan on exercising more haha.. I used to take my dog for a walk almost every day, but park schedules conflict with my class lately... it only sometimes seems to help. When I used to actually go RUNNING or jogging in the mornings, I'd feel pretty great. But I haven't had much time for that either... I also said I was going to take up Yoga.. but.. no time yet.
I do feel that exercise will help me, I just need routine I think.. and time. At the very least, it will help with stress..
jen, I hate to hear about your anxiety.. that really is the worst part for me.. but it is good to hear from you regardless!
And Eric, on a side note.. lately at night I've been feeling as if I have an excess of acid running around my body, but there's just so many symptoms, it's hard to focus.. I hope something works out for you soon.
I've decided to take a break here and there from writing as frequently in this forum, as I feel I'm getting redundant. But I do keep reading every day to see what everyone new has to say. I'm not taking anything right now to help myself, just hoping that a shift in diet will help... we'll see.
